Interested residents can so learn how to harness the power of the Internet to help fund a project.
On Friday, April 29, from 7 to 8 p.m. The Camden County Library System is offering a workshop on crowd-funding at the Voorhees Library to help interested parties learn about what crowd-funding is and how it works.
Crowd-funding platforms can be confusing and intimidating places whether running a campaign to generate funding for a personal project or looking for creative projects to support financially.
Matthew Meyer will explain the basic principles and theories behind crowd-funding and offer advice on running a successful campaign.
Meyer is a local author and artist who has successfully run two Kickstarter campaigns that have generated more than $45,000 combined. He also maintains an active Patreon account with more than 40 monthly subscribers. He’ll share some of the lessons he has learned along the way, offer some tips to maximize success and answer questions about his experiences.
In addition to Kickstarter, Meyer is expected to discuss other platforms like IndieGoGo and GoFundMe.
